Common questions in Sutton-under-Brailes

Do you hold any accreditations?

We hold CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile accreditations.

Do I have to be there?

Yes. We need access to the room while we work, at a time that suits you.

How long does a reseal take?

Normally a couple of hours, plus curing time.

What happens after I send pictures?

You will get a fixed quote back, plus dates. There’s no obligation to book.

How do I get a price for bath resealing in Sutton-under-Brailes?

We give a fixed price based on pictures of the damage. Send a close-up of the damage and a wider photo with your OX15 postcode.

When can I use the bath after resealing?

Normally about a day later. We will tell you the exact time.

Is it OK to have pets in the house?

Please keep children and pets out of the room during the visit and until it has cured. Everywhere else in the home is fine.

My seal keeps tearing. Why?

Typically because the bath or tray moves, or it was sealed with the bath empty. We fill the bath before sealing it.

Bath resealing in Sutton-under-Brailes, done in place

A good reseal is all about preparation: old silicone removed, mould treated, the joint cleaned and dried. Then the fresh sealant goes on, as one neat, continuous bead. If you’re dealing with stained silicone and a messy previous reseal, we can help, on shower trays & enclosures, baths and wet rooms alike.

A one-year guarantee comes as standard, so you are not left on your own once we have gone.

Common problems we fix in Sutton-under-Brailes

Black mould is the most common reason people reseal. It grows into the silicone, so cleaning only removes the surface.

Most people get in touch after spotting one of these:

  • Damp near the bath
  • Unsealed corners
  • Black mould in the sealant
  • Silicone smeared on tiles

Questions to ask before booking

  • How to look after the finish
  • What prep work is covered
  • What the guarantee covers, and for how long
  • How long it needs to cure

Choosing a repair company

Looking after it afterwards

Simple care helps the repair last. Our advice:

  • Keep the joints dry
  • Clean the sealant gently and regularly
  • Run the extractor fan during and after showers
  • Let steam out after showers

Leave the sealant to cure for the time we give you, normally about a day.

Mouldy sealant is more than a cosmetic problem. An early reseal keeps water where it belongs.

Landlord and trade work in Sutton-under-Brailes

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Just send photos, the address and how to get access and we will handle the rest.

Prices and what affects them

Quotes are free and the price is fixed. What we take into account:

  • Where the damage is and how we get to it
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The material and finish
  • The size and number of damaged areas

It helps to know what pushes a price up or down: access, material, the extent of the damage and whether we can do several items together. Photos let us give you a fixed figure.

Getting a price from pictures

You can normally get a fixed price without us visiting. To make it quick:

  • A coin or ruler next to the damage for scale
  • The material, if you know it
  • Any earlier repairs or coatings
  • A photo taken from further back

We price from photos so you don’t have to wait in for a survey. Send them through the quote form, or call 0345 017 0787 if you’d rather talk it through, and you will get a fixed figure back.

How it works

There’s not much you need to do on the day. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we’ll take it from there. Most visits take a couple of hours, tidy-up included.

  1. The old silicone is cut out completely.
  2. We remove the residue and clean the joint.
  3. We treat mould and dry the joint thoroughly.
  4. We fill the bath, or weight the tray, to open the joint.
  5. New mould-resistant silicone is applied and tooled neatly.

Before we arrive

  • Mention any earlier repairs or resurfacing
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Avoid using the area for a few hours before we arrive

Get a quote

The quickest way to a price is to send a couple of photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll tell you honestly if a repair is the right fix.

When a repair is not the answer

We will always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair will not do:

  • Water damage behind the bath that needs a builder
  • Very wide gaps that need a trim
  • Hollow or loose tiles

If in doubt, send photos and we will say what we think.

Materials we repair

  • Shower trays & enclosures
  • Baths
  • Basins & vanity units
  • Wet rooms
  • Kitchen worktops & sinks

Is resealing worth it?

Putting new silicone over old does not last. It soon peels, and mould stays trapped behind it. A proper reseal removes the old first. The price depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many items we do on one visit. You get a fixed price from your pictures, so you know the cost before you book.

What you get with us

  • No need to remove anything
  • We leave the room as we found it
  • Fixed prices from your photos
  • Same prices wherever you are

See our pricing.

Should I try a DIY kit first?

DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can make a small mark look better. Where they fall down is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler frequently lifts.

It’s tempting to reach for a kit, but many of the jobs we do start with putting right a DIY repair. Doing it properly first is typically the cheaper route.
